A salt marsh is a coastal ecosystem characterized by the presence of salt-tolerant plants, commonly known as halophytes, that thrive in intertidal zones where the land meets the ocean or a tidal body of water. Salt marshes are typically found in temperate and tropical regions along coastlines and are influenced by the rising and falling tides, which inundate the area with seawater at certain times.
